I ask this as I had a 7mm BR that fed like slick glass on a Model 7 Rem.
Heard about the mag box conversion on the 700, but want to know if current custom bolts will reliably feed out of the magazine w/o any mods? Considering a 6 or 6.5BR, or may skip them and just go 6.5x47 L. Paper to deer so any will do I reckon to the ranges I intend to use, the last I would punch an elk with a good bullet w/o hesitation, but expect few future trips.
